Tasting notes
In the glass, a yellow color with an golden hue.
Very aromatic and fresh on the nose, hints of yellow peaches and hazelnut with nuances of dried apricots supported by tea leaves.
The mouth is rich, fresh and complex where dried apricots, almond and suggestions of honey are mixed in harmony giving to the wine a great drinkability.
The wine has a long and crisp finish supported by a nice texture.
